Pumpkin Poblano Corn Pudding
Serves 10
Time 1 hr
When it comes to regional flair, the poblano chile is ideal for smoky moles, or roasted and cut into strips for garnish, or used to stir up special sauces for holiday meals. The thick-walled poblano is the best chile for roasting and stuffing because the temperature of these delicious peppers ranges from medium to hot — teasing but not torturing the palate. This recipe creates a tremendous holiday dish with an intoxicating aroma.
